This classic monograph, first issued as a hardcover volume in 1965, began its life in 1958 as a monographic issue of Aperture magazine published in celebration of Westons life. Drawing on a decades-long collaboration between the photographer and Nancy Newhall, Aperture cofounder and early MoMA curator, this volume brings together a sequence of images and excerpts from Westons writing in an effort to channel the photographers spirit of creativity and, in his own words, present clearly my feeling for life with photographic beauty…without subterfuge or evasion in spirit or technique. Now, fifty years later, Aperture is pleased to present a reissue of this volume, which covers the range of Westons greatest works. Accompanying and amplifying the images are Westons own thoughts, excerpted from his now-famed Daybooks and letters. Others who contributed to the making of the book include two of the artists sons, Brett and Cole, and two other Aperture cofounders: filmmaker and author Dody Weston Thompson and photographer Ansel Adams, whose essay on the jacket offers a posthumous tribute to a remarkable artist and his oeuvre. A brief bibliography as well as a chronology offer further insight into the life and work of this giant of twentieth-century photography.
